Agnes didn't have contact with Mr. Brownlow, Monks, or Rose before her death, so it's hard to tell if the happy ending would have come around as it did if she had lived.

His mother would have been by his side, but it's difficult to tell if she would have been a good or caring mother since she didn't have much characterization. It's a tough call there.(less)
